Thinking of Moving to Northampton?
Northampton is a well-connected market town at the heart of the country, offering a wide range of property types and neighbourhoods. From Victorian and Edwardian terraces close to the town centre, to post-war family homes, modern developments and nearby village properties, there is usually something to suit most budgets and lifestyles.
For day-to-day living, Northampton provides a good choice of shops, supermarkets and independent businesses, together with parks, open spaces and riverside walks. The town is also home to a variety of sports clubs, gyms and leisure facilities, as well as theatres, museums and local events throughout the year.
Transport links are a particular advantage. Northampton sits close to the M1, A45 and A14, with regular rail services to London and Birmingham, making it a practical base for commuters and those who travel regularly. There are primary and secondary schools across the town and surrounding villages, together with further and higher education provision.
As local Chartered Surveyors and Estate Agents, we have detailed knowledge of Northampton’s housing stock, from traditional brick terraces and former shoe-workers’ cottages to more modern estate and infill developments. We can provide clear, practical guidance on suitable areas, likely values, and any property-specific considerations to be aware of.
If you are considering a move to Northampton and would like straightforward advice on where to live, the type of property that might suit you, or the process of buying and selling locally, we would be pleased to help.

Northampton Estate Agents - David Cosby
A Professional Lettings Service
Managing a rental property can be demanding, particularly when balancing tenant selection, maintenance, compliance, and day-to-day communication. Our lettings team provides a professional and structured service to support landlords and protect their investment.
We are regulated by both the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and ARLA, giving landlords confidence that their property is managed in line with recognised professional standards.
We have detailed knowledge of the local rental market and can advise on appropriate pricing, marketing, and tenant selection. Our referencing and screening process is designed to help secure suitable tenants who will meet their obligations throughout the tenancy.
Our service covers tenancy documentation, renewals, routine inspections, and maintenance coordination. We work with trusted contractors to address repairs promptly and keep the property in good order, while maintaining clear communication with both landlords and tenants.
If you are seeking a reliable, well-managed lettings service with clear professional oversight, please contact us to discuss how we can help.
Photography
Creating the best first impression of your home is essential in order to achieve a quick sale. Our professional photography is captured using the highest quality professional grade cameras, lenses and flashes. We do not use fish-eye lenses to give a false impression; however, we will spend time preparing and improving the RAW image data in professional software to ensure that your home is presented in its best light with images that will induce a ‘show-home’ appeal.
Floor Plans
Our in-house surveyors are experienced CAD operatives and we draft all our own floor plans. This enables us to ensure a higher degree of accuracy than the typical estate agent floor plan. We also provide a level of detail that enables potential purchasers to understand the space and amenities within your home. We obtain our measurements for the floor plans using the latest laser scanners which helps to ensure quick, safe, and accurate collection of data.
3D Virtual Tours (Matterport)
As standard on all of our properties, David Cosby Estate Agents provide 3D Virtual Matterport Tours. This is a wonderful visual tool that creates 'an always-open house' allowing potential purchasers a high fidelity tour of your property that will be perfectly staged 100% of the time. It even enables the viewer to take dimensions - critical for planning their new furniture layouts!
